Rounding up all the B sides, demos and rarities Ocean Colour Scene released over the course of 1996, when the band was riding the crest of their popularity, B Sides, Seasides & Freerides, illustrates the depth of the band’s ambition.

Primarily comprised of acoustic material, the set includes a fine, stripped down version of “The Day We Caught the Train”, the neo-prog rock of “Huckleberry Grove” & the funky instrumental “Chicken Bones and Stones” which features Paul Weller on organ. There’s also a live cover of “Day Tripper” that features Noel Gallagher on guitar and Liam Gallagher on vocals.
